Really smooth tune, nice! Only criticism I have is that I felt that the pad starting at 0:46 could be brought down in volume a bit, it kinda' drowns out the melody.

Ooh, this one was interesting. Intro was cool and ominous, I like the tension created by the measure of dissonance in the contrabass followed by the half and whole guitar notes. The violin melody and bass counterpoint worked really well, especially with the synth pad providing an ominous ambience. Song builds up chaotic tension as other instruments pop in with their melodies and the increased tempo provides quite a bit of exciting tension towards the end (along with the drums and arps). If I were to gripe about anything, I found the ending to be a little bit too abrupt (and honestly I just kinda' wish the song was longer, you've got something good going on here).
Dynamic piece with an intro that reminded me a little of the "Halloween" (movie) theme and two distinct sections. Good job and I enjoyed it overall. My only critique would be that the rhythm loses some of its dance energy during the transition between the sections when the bass drum drops out and there's just legato strings, but the measure of bass drums and swoosh after the drop at 0:54 set the expectation that it would immediately return to a dance rhythm only to go into a legato free-flowing section... anyone necrodancing to it would be somewhat confused IMO.
Nice bird SFX. Bongo rhythm works well. Mallets + piano are a nice melody and counterpoint. I like the addition of the guitar rhythm. Dramatic when the violins come in. The moment at 1:02 is absolutely beautiful. Strings and woodwind are beautiful around 2:20 and the staccato string rhythm works well. Absolutely gorgeous song with a very crisp mix. (Although I will admit it sounds like the sort of song they'd run in a pharmaceutical commercial while someone narrates all the medicine's horrible side effects. :P )
A nice call and response motiff between the woodwind and keys with some nice variations interspersed, though with a bit too much repetition IMO. Also, the woodwind and keys were getting a little drowned out by the drums; maybe bring up the volume on those elements? It's certainly a piece that has potential.
